Agent-Based Simulation of Fish Boats Evacuation [PDF]

Journal of Risk Analysis and Crisis Response (JRACR), 2015
Emergency management agencies will organize people to evacuee when disasters are forecasted. However, contradictions between individual behavior and group objective appear frequently during large-scale evacuations, the problem is obviously in the process

Evaluating the Influence of Twitter Bots via Agent-Based Social Simulation

IEEE Access, 2022
Social Media is used by many as a source of information for current world events, followed by publicly sharing their sentiment about these events. However, when the shared information is not trustworthy and receives a large number of interactions, it ...

Variance in System Dynamics and Agent Based Modelling Using the SIR Model of Infectious Disease [PDF]

, 2012
Classical deterministic simulations of epidemiological processes, such as those based on System Dynamics, produce a single result based on a fixed set of input parameters with no variance between simulations. Input parameters are subsequently modified on

Cooperative behavior in pre-state societies: an agent based approach to the Axum civilization

Frontiers in Complex Systems
IntroductionThis study intends to test the hypothesis that, contrary to traditional interpretation, the social structure of the polity of Aksum–especially in its early stages–was not characterized by a vertical hierarchy with highly centralized ...

Tactical Size Unit as Distribution in a Data Farming Environment

Axioms, 2016
In agent based models, the agents are usually platforms (individual soldiers, tanks, helicopters, etc.), not military units. In the Sandis software, the agents can be platoon size units.

Functional balance at rest of hemispheric homologs assessed via normalized compression distance

Frontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionThe formation and functioning of neural networks hinge critically on the balance between structurally homologous areas in the hemispheres. This balance, reflecting their physiological relationship, is fundamental for learning processes.

Projective simulation with generalization

, 2017
The ability to generalize is an important feature of any intelligent agent. Not only because it may allow the agent to cope with large amounts of data, but also because in some environments, an agent with no generalization capabilities cannot learn.

Key challenges in agent-based modelling for geo-spatial simulation [PDF]

, 2007
Agent-based modelling (ABM) is fast becoming the dominant paradigm in social simulation due primarily to a worldview that suggests that complex systems emerge from the bottom-up, are highly decentralised, and are composed of a multitude of heterogeneous ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
